Well it’s official, 2016 has now officially ended and we look forward to what 2017 might throw our way. I can’t be more thankful for all the experiences I’ve had throughout the year, some of them were tough and a lot of them extremely rewarding. I’ve learned a lot about myself and even more about business then I could’ve imagined.

If you’re fan of M83 you would know by now that the title above “the city is my church’ is from his song “Midnight City” I though what a great name to blog this series of photographs and also named one of them exactly that.

It’s been a dream of mine to fly in a helicopter to capture unique views and bring them to you for purchasing on canvas. It’s also been difficult to time a helicopter flight with the right conditions for the vision I’ve had in mind.

It was all time, the swell was pumping, the lads were giving shakas left right and centre every 10 seconds, more "gnarly's" were heard than on Blue Crush and it was all okand vindicated when world champion Mick Fanning rocks up with his Red Bull surf ski and a crew of frothing professionals, what's not to be wowed at? The pure skill and surfing ability of these guys are clearly above many of men and as a photographer, it was a dream come true.

I pull into the familiar car park and it's dark. The headlights over the Seaway seem to guide my way over to the island I want to reach.It's been a long time. Perhaps too long. The wind is suspect and conditions aren't ideal. It leaves an empty scenario and I anticipate filling it's void.5 foot and 9 inches of fibreglass and I are about to form a bond. A friendship so deep no one, yet everyone can understand.

Premium acrylic face mount

If you're after a show stopping look for your beautiful home, then look no further than this incredible medium which will absolutely knock your socks off. Our premium acrylic face mount prints are top of the line and will blow you away. This stunning medium is by far the most sort after with it's dynamic look and high definition feel my images look like they're wet and life like. The process is extraordinary with the image printed on the highest quality metallic pearl fine art paper and then applied to a 4.5mm thick polished sheet of acrylic, finished with Dibond aluminium composite panel on the back.

Our mounting system is also a beautiful in design itself, with no visible mounting brackets the photograph looks like it is floating off the wall. This is achieved by using the Z-bar hanging system which is screwed into the wall and the acrylic locked into place.

Canvas Prints﻿

Our high quality 400gsm fine art canvas offers a fine structure & a premium bright white inkjet coating for amazing reproduction of art and photography. Combine this with genuine ultrachrome inks of professional Epson printers & you have a canvas print with longevity of 100+ years. Each canvas is then sprayed with a liquid laminate, which not only enhances colour but also protects against UV fading, dust, minor scratches & water. Then expertly gallery wrapped over a stretcher bar made from quality Australian pine & finished with a tape seal backing & plastic coated hanging wire.

What's the difference between a "stretched canvas" and a "rolled canvas" you ask? The stretched canvas is ready to hang on your wall, expertly wrapped and finished with a beautiful backing and gallery hanging wire. The rolled canvas comes in a canister and is best suited for overseas transit or for a special project you might have in mind.

Three piece stretched canvas

Our three piece stretched canvas (also called triptych) is a popular option of the interior designers. Using the rule of thirds the canvas is broken into three pieces giving it a fresh look with a difference.

For our large framed metallic prints please note no mat board is fitted due to the size of the photograph, instead the photograph is printed with a coloured boarder of your choice (standard is white) allowing for similar affect to the mat board.
